India v England series

I agree. I guess the counter is:

- India may have been locked down, but it’s a society where people live hand to mouth in many instances. It will be widely spread already
- it’s a much younger population

Neither of these are good reasons obviously

Yep for sure, but it’s more if a player gets it the game is off right?

There will be people in the ground who have it, percentages wise you’d think,

Just reading there Australia tour to South Africa cancelled
 

Absolutely. It’s barmy. It’s actually barmy it’s in India given the IPL was overseas

Apparently players found out same time we did

Sounds like it’s India trying to show strength and face to me

Considering how quickly England left South Africa you’d think they’ll be wary. To be fair even the hotel sounds a bit too open

Fingers crossed.

I mean considering how the low the rate was here in the summer, by that rationing they could have had crowds in, was rightly never discussed though

The hotels there are astonishing places, absolutely massive. Get lost every time I go
Thanks, a very interesting read (from skimming it anyway)

Does that mean if we win in India we make test championship final?
 
Ah well, that’s not happening. NZ India will be a good final (assuming it goes ahead) but New Zealand can consider themselves a bit lucky

NZ are extremely lucky, I hate knocking them as I love their country and their crickters, but theyve played like 75% of their cricket in NZ, on flat pitches that suit them too.

They arent the best side in the world like, sorry but its true!

I only say this as I listen to far too much cricket podcasts and the amount of praise they get, compared to England is over the top, they wouldn't win 5 away tests in a row like we do IMO!

I would have liked to see a big 4/5 test series against them in the summer. Boult/Southee/Jamieson/Wagner would be pretty lethal in England

I'd be more worried about catching summat worse than Covid out there like.

Rahane is a rare batsman who averages more away from home than at home which is probably why his odds are a bit higher

Welcome back Carry! Odds look tight on the two obvious batting favourites but fancy opposing Kholi with one of India's top 3. Leach and Ashwin as top bowlers. Root very short but could only oppose him with Stokes but think lefties might struggle for England.
